Summary
"The upright fetal position was again uncomforting.
The cold air of the cell stung her face. It was only slightly warmer beneath her thick coat that she hadn't been able to button and her thin sweater. The visual HUD warnings hadn’t stopped since she’d stepped into the night, and neither had the migraines nor hunger. She could only look at her hands, burned thoroughly, to distract herself from the loud, agonized chatter of the other people who had been thrown into cramped cells.
In a way, it was hard to feel anything right now. She could sense the electric current of the biochip in her head being strangled by brain matter, drowning any signals it sent to her slack wiring."
Eight months after the Aug Incident of 2027, Allison's life has been in continual crisis. Depression, Darrow Deficiency Syndrome, and the knowledge that she should be cultivating a flock in this world all plague her. After a riot, she ends up in a cell, waiting to die or be released, and is surprised to find comfort in a man she's never met before.

Summary
Life is going good for Vincent, and his augmentations are everything he dreamed of. Even more so when he gets an upgrade after his Biomedica arms have undergone further development.
But then the first biochip glitch happens, and Vincent’s life is beginning to fall apart. Despite that he decides to make that one dream come true he’s had for years, as now, being jobless, he has the time on his hand. Backpacking through Europe might feel a little like running away, and maybe it is, but it was a dream of his for many years.
Of course he wouldn’t have been able to imagine to run into a cute bookshop owner with messy black hair, and beautiful brown eyes.

Summary
A short monologue by an unnamed Aug, talking about Aug Incident. Comes with a voice-over.
Mostly mood, but also - external perception of marginalised groups of people based on misconceptions about their nature vs their internal perception of themselves, I suppose.

Summary
Part 2 of the 30 Day RoboWhump challenge, which has taken me a lot longer than 30 days. Each chapter has individual tags and warnings, so you can pick and choose what you want to read. Gratuitous Adam whump. More tags and description to be added as more is written.
(Discontinued, marked complete. Might write the remaining 6 prompts for another fandom if I ever feel up to it, might not. This was a lot of fun but I found it drained my stamina and the quality of my writing is not where I'd like it to be when I try to crunch out such a high volume of work like this.)
